During his growing up years, Nitin Desai nurtured his dream of creating a Sheesh Mahal on the big screen someday. Years later, the renowned art director considers himself lucky enough to have got the opportunity to fulfill his dream with ALTBalaji and ZEE5's highly-anticipated magnum-opus, Paurashpur.

A monumental work with stunning visuals, grandeur, scale, brilliant star cast, and powerful dialogues, the two streaming platforms have recently added to the excitement by unveiling the trailer of the much-awaited series featuring a stellar cast comprising of veteran Annu Kapoor, Milind Soman, Shilpa Shinde, Shaheer Sheikh, Sahil Salathia, Poulomi Das, Anantvijay Joshi, Flora Saini, and Aditya Lal among others.

Self-admittedly, the world of Paurashpur was not an easy world to create, and the makers and Nitin took up the mammoth task to make the splendour of the Paurashpur kingdom at N.D Studios.

In this BTS video, one can see the artistic genius taking us through all that he and his crew had gone through to create a visual spectacle for the viewers that they would have not probably witnessed before in the OTT space!



`Paurashpur is a place where everything looks beautiful, artistic, and regal. Everything has been designed beautifully, keeping the subject and characters' traits in mind. During my growing up years, when I saw the Sheeshmahal scene, I was truly mesmerized by it, and I have always nurtured the dream of creating one in my career as an art director if I ever get the opportunity. Paurashpur gave me that opportunity. I created the Sheesh Mahal out of more than one crore pieces of glass. A crew of 250 people took almost 6 months to create this Sheesh Mahal. We have worked on various camera angles and experimented a lot as to how it would look eventually in terms of lighting, how would the actors look in those frames, etc.`

`The brief I got from the makers was to create a world which should look artistic and of international standards. Considering that, we have worked extensively on the look of the show and gave attention to the minutest details,` Nitin concludes.

Directed by Shachindra Vats, witness the epic story of an extraordinary kingdom on 29th December on ALTBALAJI & ZEE5!
